[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which lower school is best for instilling critical thinking skills while also teaching solid foundational skills?[/quote] SFS (don’t like their new picture math methods tho), PDS, Potomac, Maret lower schools have solid instruction and materials. [/quote] Can you please explain the math thing? [/quote] Ask the progressive schools what math curriculum they use, for how long, and why the change. And who led the change. Then ask how it’s going and how do they measure its efficacy. Ask them their academic goals and how they measure achievement, if at all. Do not accept fuzzy cliches as an answer to How do kids master math and demonstrate mastery. It’s not fuzzy. Then decide if that’s what you want for your kids. [/quote]
